Well, after fighting with this damned old Mutoh Outdoor 62 for the past several years, I've decided that color printing is not that important to me (it was a VERY small part of my business...much more aggravation that it was worth). Anyway, I don't want to to invest any more money in it. I...

Be able to print from Flexi 8.1 (xp) to my Epson 1400 printer...can I do it?

Hey y'all...I have a customer who provided me with a t-shirt for his business to copy so I could screen print more for him. The font used is Insignia A and I really thought I'd seen something very similar to it on my computer. I used Find My Font software and came up with nothing. This is a...

I have a Graphtech FC5100-130 that has worked flawlessly for me since I got it. Today, I was gonna do a contour cut. When I powered up, the cutter head started to move back to the right...about halfway, it acted like it hit something and the power went off. I looked in the manual and it says...

I have a Graphtech FC5100-130 plotter and I've noticed that the beginning edge of vertical characters starts with a slight angular cut...then everything cuts fine. You can see it in the pic. It does it on every vertical letter. I have this set up running with Sign Blazer (don't say it's the...

Hey guys, recently I bought a Graphtec FC5100-130 that was used by a big company. Came in a large road case but they didn't have a stand for it. Now, I can build a stand if I have to, but it sure would be easier if someone had one they wanted to sell. I've contacted Graphtec, and they don't...

I want to start making a few channel letters and I would like to know a supplier for the edge that holds the face of the letter on (forgive me...I don't the proper terminology for these parts yet). Also, where you can buy the strip leds. Heck, any help you give me will be appreciated. Thanks...

I have a neon "Open" sign that is intended for indoor use. I don't have a window to put it in since I work out of my double garage. Do you think I could build something like a shadow box, seal it well, and put lexan on the front and use it that way? The sign looks nice and I'd like to be able...

Last year, I wanted to get started doing some digital printing but I didn't want to jump in with both feet quite yet. I have about 2 years on my present job and I wanted to have something in place to do after I retire. I bought a Mutoh Outdoor 62 printer for a good price. I knew that it was...

I was lucky enough to do a little horse trading recently and ended up with a Graphtec FC5100-130 plotter with the contour cut option (I love this thing). It came in a road case as the company that owned it shipped it all over the country. It did not come with a stand (if you know of one for...

I have a very simple though profitable job to do. With Mutoh Outdoor 62 and Flexi 8.1 when I went to print out a simple sign with big sky blue letters and small gray letters, the sky blue was navy blue and the gray was almost black. I thought that maybe printer was putting down too much black...

Hey guys. Just got a FC5100 130 but it was shipped all over the country in a road case and it had no stand with it. I really would like to have a stand without worrying about building one. Anyone got one for sale? Graphtec doesn't. Thanks, DC

I ran across this company in Indonesia (http://www.abrahamelectronic.com/?Printer:HUMMINBIRD_1198C_SI:Epson_DX2_Color_Printhead) and they offer DX2 color printheads for my Mutoh Outdoor 62 for $110 each with no shipping charge. They only offer this with bank wire transfer or on open account...

OK...I suppose this thread could have gone to either the Flexi or Mutoh forums, so I have a similar one in both. I have a Mutoh Outdoor 62 that I just replaced the heads, dampers, and capping station on in January of this year. Was printing perfectly. Got in a terrible wreck in June and could...

Hey guys, this is David. I bought a Mutoh Outdoor 62 several months back knowing that it needed both printheads, capping station, and pump. I bought the parts from CMYK Parts, did the installation, and everything pretty much worked as it was supposed to. I had a lull in business and for about...

Hey guys...this is David with a question that I'm sure has been asked and answered many times. I've looked through the forums. I've tried the recommended things and I just can't make this work. I'm using CS4 and I have Genuine Fractals. Customer provides an image about 3" x 4" and wants this...

First of all, I did a search in the Mutoh forum for "bi directional" printing, got 78 hits, none of them helped me. I have a Mutoh Outdoor 62 that I bought in January. I put in new print heads, pump, capping station, and dampers. Printer prints like a champ but I don't know how to set it for...

I bought a Mutoh Outdoor 62 recently and rebuilt it. It works just fine. I have heard that you really don't need the light cyan and magenta cartridges. 1) Is this correct? 2) If I don't need them, where would I change the setup just for CMYK? No flames please, I searched everywhere and just...

I decided I wanted to move into the digital printing business. I bought a Mutoh Outdoor 62 and put it into perfect condition. I also have a Walco laminator that does the job. Here's my dilemma...I wanted to do a simple 2 color sign that I was going to mount on MaxMetal and then hand cut...
